First off, great app David..glad to see good tools being brought out.
Next, I tried the player (not with any CDs) but just PSG playback...after loading the AlienCrush.psg, all I hear is garbled noise. Any settings on the player we should know about?
System specs below:
Dell Precision WorkStation 530 MT
Duel Intel XEON 2.4GHz
2GB RAM
SoundMAX Integrated Digital Audio
XP PRO w/SP1
DX 9.0a

I have made a new version :
http://www.magicengine.com/player012-english.zip
I have completely rewritten the synchronization function, now even if something goes wrong the sound engine should re-sync and continue to play the sound normally. In the previous version if things went out of sync the engine would not always re-sync. Finger crossed!
Let me know if it works better. _________________ David Michel |

Yes!
Could someone test with some CDs too?
PC-Engine or audio CDs, both work. _________________ David Michel |

For my side :
Pce Cds , PcFx Cds and Audio Cds play fine since the first version while Psg files are playing smoothly since .0.1.2 only.
Maybe you could make the player generate a .log file like ME does for acccurate reports concerning users configuration ?
Also being able to use the player as a background activity while doing other stuff would be very nice .  _________________

BTW david, everything is perfect for me...  _________________ If you translate Pole Position in French with babelfish you get 'Position de Polonais'... I think it's hilarious... from a French point of view. |

Mindblowing. I'm listening to Babylon 5 right now
The PSG engine is flawless and the CD digital playback works perfect. If MagicEngine is going to sound exactly like this, I'm out to buy a pile of Kleenex boxes straight away
[Edit] David, could you please log the first level of Aero Blasters and the main theme of Devil Crash? They are very good tests for noise and PCM channel respectively. |

Just a sugestion though... _________________ If you translate Pole Position in French with babelfish you get 'Position de Polonais'... I think it's hilarious... from a French point of view. |
